DESTINY by MAGGIE SHAYNE
|
Summary2002 RITA Finalist
Return to the rich, sensual, and bewitching world that
Maggie Shayne created in the bestselling Eternity
and Infinity... She is Nidaba--an immortal High Witch so ancient, so
legendary, that for thousands of years she has been the
ultimate prize, relentlessly pursued by Dark Witches. She
has eluded all who would kill her...until a mother's grief
makes her reckless and she is captured by a madman. After
endless physical and mental torment, she escapes, but her
captivity has damaged her spirt as well as her body. And
though the wounds to her body have healed, the scars on her
mind and soul remain...
After more than four thousand years, her destiny has
finally found her...
Nathan King now has the peace he craved in the life he
created for himself--until he sees her again. Can it really
be Nidaba--the love he thought lost to him some many
centuries ago? But the woman he finds is not the fierce,
proud girl of his cherished memories--now her eyes are
haunted by a pain so deep, and a hatred so bitter it
divides them still. But if he is to understand the source
of her anguish and reclaim the passion that was once
theirs, he must face the truth that the evil that tore them
apart once again stands between them and their chance at
forever...

I read DESTINY last week and was really disappointed with
it, especially since I loved the first two. The most
disappointing aspect was that there seemed to be relatively
little focus on love and romance. There was so much
switching from time to time, and so many murders and

DESTINY is the third book in Ms. Shayne's series of
immortal High Witches. It is also an excellent stand-alone
book. Having not yet read ETERNITY and INIFNITY, the other
two books in this series, I was concerned that I might miss
vital parts that were revealed in the Read more...
